    Hey, I know this is insignificant, based on what happened on Tuesday, but I was just wondering:

    1) If anyone knows the correct sequential track order for the Gone in 60 Seconds score. There's no particular reasoning for this - just that I prefer to hear the music as it was heard from the film.

    2) American Outlaws, I've heard, sounds a lot like the western country music we heard in Armageddon. Now, I hated those moments on the score CD, and was wondering if Outlaws is a better listen or not.

    Thanks.

    Not sure about "Armageddon", but I have recently reviewed "American Outlaws." It's not really that good (unless you are a Rabin fan). I'd get it used if at all.

    ...written by someone who is not a rabin fan?


    actually, outlaws is quite decent. you can feel that it's "inspired" by themes like the magnificent seven, and other grandiose western themes. surprisingly, this fits rabin pretty well, as a guitar man...

    one might complain that it is too short, but when you're listening to it, it doesn't seem to be....

    I loathe Gone in 60 Seconds with all my heart, but found American Outlaws to be a rather fun score.

    Thanks Lancelot....

    I have not really gotten that excited by the work of this composer, but I will say that "American Outlaws" likely does what it is asked to do in the insipid film that it is written for overall. I think Rabin does here what Carter Burwell was asked to try and do in "A Knight's Tale" and I will say that whether you think either of them succeeds depends on your interest in their music. I hope that sounds like a fair statement?

    Parts of Burwell's score I loved and parts just infuriated me. I think this Rabin score comes in that line of Western scores like Williams' "The Missouri Breaks" in terms of its eclecticism.
